Fill Me In Lyrics

Verse 1 I was checking this girl next door when her parents went out She'd phone say hey boy come on right around So i knock on the door you were standing with a bottle of red wine ready to pour Dressed in long black satin laced to the floor So i went in Then we sat down start kissing caressing Told me 'bout jacuzzi Sounded interesting So we jumped right in All calls diverted to answerphone Please leave a message after the tone I mean me & her parents were kinda cool But they were the fine line between me & you We were just doing things young people in love do Parents trying to find out what we were up to Chorus Saying why were you creeping 'round last night Why could i see two shadows moving in your bedroom light Now your dressed in black when i left you were dressed in white Can you fill me in? Calls diverted to answerphone Red wine bottle half the contents gone Midnight return jacuzzi turned on Can you fill me in? Verse 2 Whenever the coast was clear & she'd ask me to come I'd say hey girl Come on right around So she knocked at the door I was standing with the keys in my hand to the 4x4 Jumped in my ride Checking that noboby saw The club we went We got down Bounce bounce to the rhythm Saw it was early morning Thought we'd better be leaving So i gave you my jacket for you to hold Told you to wear it cos you felt cold I mean me & her didn't to break the rules Weren't trying to play your mum & dad for fools We were just doing things young people in love do Parents trying to find out what we were up to Chorus Saying why can't you keep your promises no more Saying you'll be home by 12 come strolling in at 4 Out with your girls but leaving with the boy next door Can you fill me in? Wearing a jacket who's property Said you'd been queuing for a taxi But you left all your money on the tv Can you fill me in? Middle 8 All they seem to do Is be checking up on you baby Watching are every move Think someday the might approve (Chorus 1-2 then fade)
